Chapter 127 The other side is Dongying

"Master, haven't you come yet?" On the tower of Haiyuntai, a military general with a bearded face walked to Wu Sangui with a sword on his shoulder. "Will you come?"

"Impossible." Wu Sangui, who looked at the blue sea, shook his head. Although the Grand Governor is extremely ruthless, he speaks with confidence. He said that he will come, he will definitely come."

"We are really going to Japan like this?" The military general was obviously a little dissatisfied. "Brothers have suffered a lot of losses, and the morale of the army has been unstable after leaving home."

When Wu Sangui led his troops to invade North Korea, the total number of Guanning troops was roughly about 40,000 troops. During this period, although the Guanning troops swept across the eight roads of North Korea, they did not lose any losses. Moreover, they performed several times with Li Feng's troops and horses under the heavy gunshots, and also lost a lot of people.

After coming here all the way, the Guanning Army had only about 30,000 troops left. Moreover, they had been away from Ningjin's hometown for a while, and the officers and soldiers were homesick and eager to go home.

"What else?" Wu Sangui, who was covered in wind and frosty face, frowned and asked, "Doesn't listen to the Grand Governor's words be prepared to fight the imperial army?"

Wu Sangui's question talked about the topic that Guanning Army was most reluctant to mention. They could not defeat Yan Fei, and they were completely crushed and powerless. Even if they brought certain casualties to Yan Fei's troops, they could not. The musket bombardment that formed a close military formation was like splashing water to knock any enemy who was trying to get close into honeycombs!

If you can't beat it, this is the most helpless thing for Guan Ningjun. Since you can't beat it, you can only obey the order. They have no other choice.

The general was also in silence, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Give all the gold and silver to the brothers." Wu Sangui thought about it and made a decision. "The wine and meat I brought should be eaten and drunk, and I can't take it away anyway. By the way, you will also give it to the brothers below to taste after you have eaten enough."

The Guanning Army had become a kind of bandit-like existence at this time. They had no country that could be loyal to them, and the Ming Dynasty did not recognize them, and the Qing Dynasty had already perished. In this case, if we wanted to maintain the morale of the army, we would not collapse, gold, silver, wealth, wine and beauty became the only choice.

"Hehe~~~" General Jun showed a familiar smile from the men. "Although these girls don't look very good, they are pretty good. I just don't know how they are in Japan."

"Tell me brothers, cross the sea to Japan. There are gold and silver everywhere, and beautiful women everywhere." Even if Wu Sangui is worried, he can only use these things to maintain morale. "After getting there, he wants as much as he wants!"

Wu Sangui's words made the nearby servants and officers and soldiers of the Ning army look happy. Although he left his hometown and seemed like a rootless duckweed, he has been enjoying the food and drinks for this period of time. He has been holding gold in his left hand and holding silver in his right hand, and he has lived a comfortable life every night as a groom.

Perhaps in the hearts of many Guanning Jun, it is only a day to enjoy it, and no one knows when he will die.

"Master, there is a ship!!" The sentry on the platform shouted, and everyone's eyes looked at the sea in the distance.

The first thing that appeared in their eyes was the tall mast, and then the entire hull slowly appeared. And it was not just one, but a large group of ships.

"The Buddha is on! That ship, that ship is iron?!" As the fleet approached, many people saw that the ten large ships that were leading were actually made of steel!

"Iron can also be a boat?" Wu Sangui, who was holding a thousand-mile mirror in his hand, felt his calves trembling. "Don't iron sink when it enters the water? Is this an immortal magic weapon?!"

The Guanning Army on the coast were shocked, and the ten iron-armored ships like giant beasts in the sea brought them an indescribable shock. When they could not understand, these people subconsciously attributed this kind of existence that was genius to magical magical tools. Because they could not explain everything they saw.

"This is my invincible fleet." Yan Fei, standing on the bridge of an ocean fishing boat, looked at the dense fleet around him with great confidence and said this sentence, as if he was standing at his feet not a ocean fishing boat, but the epoch-making battleship of the Fearless.

However, Yan Fei's words were actually not wrong. Judging from the standards of this era, these fishing boats equipped with modern artillery are like invincible fleets. All the ships sailing on oceans around the world are not their opponents.

Because it is a fishing boat modification, modern missiles and rockets cannot be installed and there is no need. So Yan Fei bought a batch of antique-level artillery from the black market and installed it on the ship.

In history, East Germany once produced a batch of famous Krupp 88 guns for the former South. When the disintegration of the former South was unrest, many artillery fired out, and Yan Fei bought such a batch of 88 guns equipped with a large number of shells and spare parts from the black market.

After careful maintenance by Ukrainian military workers, these artillery can still be used.

Yan Fei installed an 88 gun with a welded gun shield fixed on the front and rear decks of each ocean-going fishing boat. At the same time, there were also old antique Bofos 40mm and Eritok 20-meter machine guns on the sides of the ships, which were also found in the arms market.

The price of these cannons is not cheap, because many of them are bought at the price of antiques. In order to make up for the accessories and shells, Yan Fei spent a lot of money on the batters.

It has to be mentioned that the military workers in Ukraine are indeed highly skilled. Even old antique-level artillery can be maintained to the point where it can be used and successfully installed on these ocean-going fishing boats.

Each of these ten ocean-going fishing boats is equipped with two 88 guns, and four Bofos 40mm machine guns and four Eritrean 20mm machine guns are installed on the side of the ship. With its displacement of more than 1,000 tons, the military is already powerful enough.

In the modern world, this kind of armed forces may only be able to deal with Somalia's pirates. However, in the seventeenth century, these ships were indeed invincible.

"Prepare to dock." Yan Fei looked at the ocean fishing boat named Victory at his feet, thinking about the glorious scene of relying on this fleet to sweep the seven oceans. The important task of planting the universe across the dragon flag is to rely on these second-hand ocean fishing boats. "Let's start with the turtle boats in the Japanese shogunate!"

These ocean-going fishing boats were brought directly from Africa in the modern world to Tianjin Wei in the 17th century. Before that, Yan Fei gathered the Dengzhou Navy and the Tianjin Navy together for training in the name of the imperial court.

As for the navy in the south, they basically took Zheng Zhilong's private fleet as the core, and Yan Fei couldn't get involved and didn't want to intervene.

Yan Fei must have attacked Zheng Zhilong, who once stabbed him in the back. Moreover, Zheng Zhilong himself understood this. Although he had sent someone to ask for peace and even sent back the defected soldier Chen Youdi and the flintlock rifle. However, Yan Fei received the gift but did not express any statement at all.

Zheng Zhilong was worried and vigorously supported the King of Fu in Nanjing, and went further and further on the road of committing suicide.

The predecessor of the Ming Navy was Zhu Yuanzhang's Chaohu Navy. In the next three hundred years, the Ming Navy defeated the Japanese fleet that wanted to invade North Korea, wanted to seize the small Franchise fleet in Macau, and wanted to seize the Dutch fleet in the Lake Islands, and the Great Franchise fleet that massacred local Chinese in Luzon.

Not to mention the once glorious Zheng He voyages to the West seven times. Unlike the army on land who lost consecutive battles in the later period, the Ming Navy was invincible in three hundred years.

Previously, Yan Fei took relevant personnel who had been training in the capital to head off from land to Tianjin Wei. After the Dengzhou Navy arrived, Yan Fei gathered all the officers and soldiers of the two naval divisions to select.

Compared with the hard-working army on land, the navy with boats lived a good life. Their ships traveled to and from different places to carry private goods, especially private salt, and they lived a good life.

Of course, this kind of good day refers to those military generals. Ordinary sailors have dark skin and chalked skin blown by the sea breeze, and their faces are expressionless as if they don't care about anything.

Yan Fei directly took all the ships and then asked the officers to go to the Beijing training class for training, leaving only ordinary sailors behind.

After some selection, all the sailors selected were converted into the main soldiers under Yan Fei's command. The new military uniforms, new logistics supplies, new salary and the opportunity to obtain land made all the sailors feel like they were reborn.

More than 100 ships that could sail far away were led by Yan Fei to the coast of North Korea, and then the North Korean ships that could sail far away were formed and entered the fleet, including the North Korean navy. After a long voyage, they arrived at Haeundae, and the other side of the place was Japan.

"Grandmaster." A few hours later, when the ocean-going fishing boat leaned on the pier that reached into the sea, Wu Sangui walked over to meet Yan Fei with his eyes flashing. He said compliments, but his eyes drifted to the guards who came down from the iron ships from time to time.

Wu Sangui has done countless great things in his life, and countless people have died in his hands. This is a truly harsh hero. In the face of Yan Fei's devastating threat, he has always been thinking about countermeasures. And taking advantage of Yan Fei's guards when there is little power to seize Yan Fei, the best choice is to seize Yan Fei.

This is done for great cause, not for the revenge of killing the father. As long as it can have enough benefits, it is also a matter of no worries to be a lackey for the Qing Dynasty who killed the father like Kong Youde.

Unfortunately, as teams of musketeers walked down from the ship, Wu Sangui's mind could only fail.

"Are you ready?" Yan Fei climbed to Haiyuntai under the entourage of many Guanning generals and guards, and looked at the sea in the distance with a full smile. "I want to send you to a place where you want to do whatever you want."

"Reply to the Grand Commander's words." Wu Sangui saluted with a respectful look on his face, "I will wait for the Grand Commander's orders until the end of the day."

Yan Fei's eyes swept across the small hill covered with woods in the distance, and smiled unanimously, "Then go. If my performance satisfies me this time, I might consider giving you an island as a fief."
